Oscar F Raymond

Summary:

Oscar F Raymond is an elementary school in Brockton, MA that serves 796 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Brockton school district, which is ranked 325 out of 351 districts in Massachusetts and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Oscar F Raymond consistently ranks among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Massachusetts, with proficiency rates in MCAS Next Generation assessments for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science that are significantly lower than the Brockton district and Massachusetts state averages across all grade levels. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students, who rank in the bottom 20-25% of Massachusetts elementary schools. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio of 15.5 is on the higher end, suggesting that the relatively high per-student spending of $16,395 may not be translating into smaller class sizes or more individualized attention for students.

While the nearby schools in the Brockton district, such as Downey, Gilmore Elementary, and Manthala George Junior School, also perform poorly on MCAS assessments, some schools like Louis F Angelo Elementary and Brookfield show slightly better academic performance, ranking in the top half of Massachusetts elementary schools. This suggests that while the Brockton district as a whole struggles academically, there may be opportunities for improvement and best practices that can be learned from the higher-performing schools within the district.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
